NILES, ILLINOIS (March 5, 2013) – Talk-A-Phone announces integration of the VOIP-500 Series emergency phone with the exacqVision VMS (Video Management System) manufactured by Exacq Technologies. In the event of a distress call, the Talk A Phone VOIP-500 Series emergency phone sends an event via standard ASCII output over the network to the exacqVision system.

Based on the event, the exacqVision VMS can link to a nearby camera or lock a pan-tilt-zoom camera to a preset in order to view real-time video of the event. An event list also logs the event and allows it to be viewed later, including related archived video.

“The integration between Talk-A-Phone and Exacq is proof that a truly open platform video management system allows for the creation of real, best-of-breed solutions,” notes Dave Underwood, President, Exacq Technologies.
